It is not like you pay with banished face-downs or skipped draws, no; you pay with barely above the average number of Monsters you will have on your field to: try to bend your entire opponent s known stock to your will. A way to make it more dangerous for the opponent would be if it messed with your entire opponent s unknown stock! The deck! This card really hurts. Good job. Edit: IT DOES! There is a card or two you can use to take the edge off of the burn effect but it is difficult to weigh in such a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 Not a fan of the card. The potent effect with a high cost scream of FTK tactics by opening this and activating it as soon as the opponent's turn begins to kill its chances of playing any monster for the rest of the turn, and possibly win you the game right there. Then, swarming strategies and support from cards such as Lilith and Lair of Darkness add consistency to such FTK. This basically is what would happen if Royal Tribute was searchable. Even when going second, with Lair of Darkness around and the inability to answer to this Trap, you can potentially break whatever board the opponent made as long as you successfully manage to activate Lair and Set this before passing your turn. IMO remove the inability to respond to it and you may be onto something, as that would make the card worse when going second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
